Michigan police may be closing in on serial pooper

It’s a classic case of “poopdunnit.” Residents in Ypsilanti, Michigan, are under a presumably smelly siege and there’s no relief to be had.

Dubbed the “serial pooper,” this individual has taken to defecating on the city’s playground slides, Michigan’s MLive reports. Obviously perturbed by the fact that no one ordered sliders on their slides, an advertising group posted messages on billboards to catch the individual:

“HELP US FLUSH OUT THE POOPER #YPSIPOOPER”

“DO YOUR CIVIC DOODY: Report the pooper. “YPSIPOOPER”

“HELP US CATCH THE POOPETRATOR #YPSIPOOPER”

The city later asked the ad agency to take the billboards down, but police are reportedly closing in on whomever is pooping up the joint.

“We have a person of interest in the case, it’s an ongoing investigation and we’re closing in on that individual,” City Manager Ralph Lange said.
